I always thought this way as a kid, so I never picked it up from anyone. At about 9 years of age I used to ponder whether or not it is possible to actually think outside of myself, and I reasoned this based on the truth that I could only access my thoughts as clearly as accessing thoughts could possibly be. Yes, I do think that people think about the fact that we each have one brain, and that brain handles all of the information which we process, than the actuality of anything is most probably the actuality which one is best able to construct using the information they were given to interpret and store as memories.
But than again, knowing that every individual has their own brain, and it seems very convincing to deduce that they think using very similar methods as myself and yourself, it would mean that the only thing that really exists is the individual as a whole of one perception of everything.
Check out some of Jiddu Krishnamurti's videos on youtube and some of his books. He basically believed everything that you do, but he was very humble and clear with his message, not relying on religion or other bullshit nodules of reasoning.
nothing exists outside of my mind?
